The background is painted on, then I used stamps on it, and paint using bubble wrap.

The sun is painted on, the birds and music score are rub-ons, and I added flower brads to it in the grass & one in her hat. Her dress is made using tissue paper crinkled up....and the lace at the top of her dress is a shawl.

This is a three week workshop.

I have enjoyed these girls for a long time, so happy that I finally signed up for it.

I am taking a She Art Workshop...this is my first project.
(week 1 - lesson 1)

This is called "she is a friend"
This is on a 8X10 canvas. I used pick tissue for the background. The girl is done using paper. I used texture paste to make the sun rays, stamps, flower stickers, heart sticker, word stickers, and rubons.

This is a three week workshop. So I still have two more projects to make.

Starting in January 2015 I am doing a year long "Take Me Deeper" Journal through His Kingdom Come . I used a book cover for both the front and back, and I am using manilla folders for my pages.

Here is the front cover I made:

Here is the back cover:

They are also doing Logos 365, which is choosing a word for the year. After praying about it, I felt led from the Lord that I need to dig into and trust Him more in waiting. So my word for 2015 is WAIT. I put that word on the back cover.

So looking forward to digging deeper into God's Word in 2015!

I was asked to share pictures on the manilla folders I used, so hope this makes sense.
I used a regular size manilla folder...I cut it down to 9 inches in length, and 6 inches in width. I used a paper cutter. I cut it on the open side (the part where the tab is) so that the folded side is where I punched my holes...so I actually will get 4 sides to work on.

Made this card using this months progressive free digi set from Imagine That...Digi's by Kris.

She supplies these adorable images when you play along in the previous months challenge.

This set is called "Joy"

I embossed my card with a snowflake pattern, then used the pre-colored image and the sentiment. I sponged on red ink around the edges of the sentiment, attaching both with 3D foam squares. I then cut up a plaid scrap of material & cut the edges on it to for a scarf.

Made this on canvas. I gessoed the background and then applied purple paint to it.

I used a Julie Nutting stamp...stamped on a newspaper pattern, then colored parts in with distress markers. I attached a handmade ribbon flower to her hair. I punched out several stars from patterned paper, then I used word labels - create your own, memories, friends, dreams, laughter, imagination, inspiration, hope & courage....within the stars. I also added the words embark on adventure everyday to the lower right hand side. I then attached two strings of stars with a brad.

Isaiah 9:6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the
government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful
Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Here is what I made for it:

I made a journal page. I sponged on distressed ink for the background. I used Dymo Labels for the words, the baby Jesus is a stamp, & the doves, Bible with scroll, and stars are picture tubes from Paint Shop Pro.
